Patricia Cranton's clear and careful analysis and her down–to–earth examples of transformative learning concepts move my work significantly closer to the practitioner. Highly recommAnded!" ––Jack Mezirow, professor emeritus of adult education, Teachers College, Columbia University Drawing on numerous examples from nearly twenty years of experience as an adult educator and researcher, Cranton relates transformative learning to current adult education perspectives.
